Acorns

Acorns are satellites of Woodlands School currently based in Oswestry and Bishops Castle.

The provisions offer primary education to a group of up to 12 pupils from years 5, 6 or 7. The whole curriculum is encompassed including the core subjects of Maths, English and Science together with the opportunity to experience activities such as horticulture which, with a cross curricular approach, give practical experience of Science, Maths and English and also build personal and social skills.

Educational visits take place throughout the year to offer enrichment to the school experience.

Although compact, Acorns offer all that larger settings are able to provide with the additional advantage of small groups and high staff ratios. Strengths and weaknesses can therefore be supported with learning experiences that pupils will enjoy and activities that are tailored to the needs of the individual.
